My Wife and I have enjoyed Doc Martin, a British sitcom about a surgeon who becomes a GP because he can't stand the sight of blood. Of course, he makes all sorts of miraculous diagnoses and life saving decisions.

But the real miracle worker in the show is the town's jack of all trades, Bert. He has managed to get whiskey to come directly out of the still looking and tasting like it has spent ten years in an oak barrel. This is just one of those details that makes me think that the writers are ignorant, or expect an ignorant audience. Anyone who cares about whiskey is going to know that Bert can't just fire up the still to fill an order for five cases of whiskey.

Love Doc Martin. The Durrells In Corfu is also terrific.

On Amazon Prime, check out Bosch. Season 4 can't come soon enough!

Wife is a Morning Joe fan so I get to listen. But generally it is in the background while listening to NRP drinking coffee and surfing the net most mornings.
Pretty much NPR throughout the day.
Wife and I watch the evening news on NBC and eat supper.

We watch some shows together. Outlander Masterpiece GOT to name of few. Reluctantly I will sit once in awhile thru one her shows on Bravo till she wakes me up.

But for myself I like Ray Donovan Shameless and old black and white movies on TCM Starz Encore Western Channel.

We recently finished watching the first two seasons of "Fortutude" on DVD. Remarkably entertaining considering how disturbing the whole thing is.

And it appears there will be a season 3 that will be produced and aired in 2018.

Not happy that WGN cancelled "The Outsiders" after two great seasons.

We've been binge watching Outlander on Blu Ray, courtesy of friends.
